How will you defend yourself from the crime you’ve committed, when you couldn’t even defend the love you once felt for me?” Napagbintangan si Hariette ng mga kapitbahay na siya ang pumatay sa kanyang tiyuhin matapos makita ng mga ito na hawak niya ang patalim habang nakahandusay sa sahig ang duguan na katawan nito.

Sa pagitan ng hustisya at pag-ibig, sino ang tunay na huhusgahan? Ang nagkasala, o ang nagmahal?
